    High pH

    Looking for suggestions on what I should do to lower the pH in my tank. Has consistently been testing at like 8.6 with the Red Sea test kit since I setup the tank a month ago. Any suggestions on what to do?

    I have a small ~8 gal water volume sps tank that i recently installed a controller on. I’ve been monitoring pH and noticed significant swings between day and night. I know swings are expect but the range is pretty significant - approximately 1 ph or more over the course of a day. I think it...

    Check your household CO2 levels... you might be surprised

    My levels were over 2000ppm, which is enough to cause drowsiness in humans. I found out after getting a CO2 meter (Aranet4), although this is not an endorsement for that brand in particular. However, I do that knowing the levels of CO2 in your house is worthwhile. Once I took actions to reduce...

    Cons of topping off with high PH RO

    Basically i got a low PH problem and the way i been dealing with it is feeding the skimmer air from outside aswell as topping off with pretty high PH water around 9-10 PH the way im getting the PH so high is by sprinkling some marine buffer by SeaChem into the RO. Now I'm worried about any side...

    pH - very high

    What would cause my pH to be so high? The only thing I dose are KZ coral booster, Xtra, snow, cyano clean, vitalizer, and flatworm stop. Even the pH in my calcium reactor is high 7.9. my Alk also continually increases. The dips in the graph is when I lower it with muratic acid.

    High PH good for Stony coral, what about LPS and Soft coral

    So BRS proved that high PH is important for SPS and stony coral health. But does the PH affect LPS and soft coral? Does it make the Lps coral or soft coral grow and propagate faster Can anyone chime in

    pH too high, alk too low...

    Background: I have a FOWLR tank that I'm getting ready to convert into a reef tank. It's established (for about 6 years now) and I started buying the extras (lights, pumps, trident for monitoring, DOS pumps for dosing) because I know me, and I know the more automated I can get it, the more...
